Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Sensations of temperature and humidity during alternative work/rest and the influence of underwear knit structure

Notes: Sumario: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of alternate work/rest and knit structure of underwear on various subjective sensations of temperature and humidity. The various sensations of temperature correlated best with core temperature, whereas the sensations of humidity correlated with skin wettedness. Subjective sensations of wetness of the skin and of the clothing are recommended as a sensitive tool to discriminate between the thermal function of similar garmentsRelated records: En: Ergonomics. - London and Washington. - Vol. 33, nº 2, February 1990 ; p. 221-234Materia / lugar / evento: Ergonomía Condiciones de trabajo Temperatura Ropas Trabajo físico Termorregulación Confort térmico Otros autores: Endrusick, Thomas L.
